Ride with BCYCLET from Geneva to Bern! This year, we offer two options for the ride to Bern: Start with us in Geneva for a 175km ride with 1700m of climbing – or join us in Lausanne for 115km with 1500m+! The main climb of the day leads through the UNESCO World Heritage recognized Lavaux vineyards, before we cross the Röstigraben in the Canton of Fribourg. Finally, we will descent through the Gantrisch Nature Park towards Bern. An ideal occasion to get accustomed to longer days in the saddle!
Registration for the ride is mandatory & will close latest on April 18, 2022. We will preorder the post-ride dinner in Bern according to your registrations (although it has to be paid in Bern individually), so please let us know latest 48 hours before the ride if you are registered, but unable to participate.
